Veneta Elementary School

You may have noticed the fences are now up around VES and construction has started. Yeah!! During construction, we have located the Veneta Elementary School office to the LCC classroom at Elmira High School. The LCC Classroom is the door past the main office as you head towards the track- the last door closest to the track. To get Elmira High School turn left on Fir Grove off of Territorial just past Elmira Elementary School or take a left on Warthen and a right on Falcon Drive. Our relocated office will be open until 3:00 PM on June 19 and reopen August 10th at 6:30 AM. We will not be moving back into our new offices at Veneta until August 31st. The phone number for our temporary offices is 541-935-8200 ext 281 for Ronda and ext 294 for Olivia. You can also still reach us by email. Kindergarten and New Student Registration will be August 19th from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM here in our relocated offices. If you did not return your updated registration materials for next year, you will need to register in person August 25, 26th, or 27th.

We are using the District Office fax at 541-935-8222. We aren’t in the same building as our temporary fax machine, but we will be checking our faxes on a regular basis. If its something we need right away- give us a call and we will make sure someone goes to the district office to pick it up.

Thanks and have a great summer.

   This summer All About Art will host a summer program at the Veneta Community Center integrating art and science. There will be two sessions. Bats, Bugs, Frogs, and Bogs will run from July 6th to July 16th  and Night Creatures will run July 20th to July 30th. Each session students will learn about the natural world around them. In addition to learning, they will also create art projects  like bat mobiles or paint t-shirts or sketch in a wildlife sketch book. These workshops are being taught by local artists and educators Annette Rothweiler and Alex Lanham. The two week sessions start run from 8:30 to Noon. Your child also has the option after the session to get a free lunch at the summer lunch program. The cost is only $45 per a session.
